Jager is awful.

Once had a tarantula, which was Jose, Jack and Tobasco sauce.
 
Re: Official Drinking Thread: I'm Having A 6-Pack Attack!: Part The Sixth

The topic of discussion in tLodge has reminded me of my 21st birthday. That night this random guy, who knew it was my 21st birthday, bought me a drink he called the landmine. He said it was called a landmine because it would knock the feet from under you (Sure enough I collapsed on the floor and my friends had to carry me out of the bar). It was in a standard beer glass and was red. To this day I have no idea what in that drink...

Any guesses? I have tried searching for it books and online...to no avail.
If it was red and in a beer glass, it might have been Red Death. They used to serve it at the BU Pub. I don't remember what it was, but the pubbers claimed was more booze than a Long Island, but tasted like Hawaiian Punch. Good stuff, but more than one (or two) and you'd be belly up.

This.

Red Death was a signature drink at one of the frats at Cornell (can't remember which one, Sigma Pi maybe?) and was pretty much as you describe. All those ****ty punches were just cheap liquor and fruit punch powder, maybe some water mixed in so you didn't die.

One of the frats at RPI (Sig Ep) hosts a year-end party after the last day of classes in May and serves a "Red Death." They'd give you as much Keystone as you wanted, but you were limited to two cups of Red Death.

I suppose, if you like root beer. I had a bad experience with a drink made with root beer during my 2nd year at NMU, and I haven't really been able to touch the stuff since.
That was me with Vodka for a while. You just get over it. Mostly over it sorta.
Makes sense that they'd blend together, since I think Jagermeister is a root-based drink (even if Lewis Black has a better explanation), but I'm wary of it too. I like root beer, and I'd like to keep it that way. :p
Oh its good. Its not common to have place to be able to make it. As the place needs to have root beer on tap (screw buying individual bottles). I highly recommend.

That MUST be it! :) I knew you guys could come through! Thinking about it...it did taste like punch. now to find a bartender that knows how to make it.

The most recent shot I have had that really screwed with me was some kick me in the jimmys. Yoicks.

Add another to the "I love Jag" list. Dead Nazis are fantastic. There is another krauterlikor called Scwartzhog, which was just cleared by the FDA a few years ago. It is virtually the same, but the aftertaste is a little tougher.

Where the **** Did I Park My Car

Best shot I've ever had. No clue what was in it.
 
Re: Official Drinking Thread: I'm Having A 6-Pack Attack!: Part The Sixth

I'm a fan of Irish Car Bombs... It's also a drink where my liking them tends to bite me in the *** in the end...

Also, Flaming Dr. Peppers are fun...

I think we need the skipper of the SS FourLoko to weigh in too. :D

Ask and ye shall receive :)

Had a bad experience with Jager... and have never tried jager and root beer, thus... my weighing in doesn't consist of much. I don't see it being real good though, although I would probably try it given the opportunity.

Powers is a d@mn solid whiskey for $25/liter. This is one of those bottles you reach for when you just want some *ing whiskey at the end of the week/day. A better value than Jameson and a bit smoother to boot, IMO.

You're getting jobbed if you're paying $25 a liter - it's about $15 for a 750 down here. Otherwise, I agree.

Well, I only know of one store within reasonable distance that has it. I guess I'll look for it again at my other liquor store, or ask what they'd charge me for an order.
